Community &
Membership

A community for everyone by everyone

Everyone means everyone. From the business owners to the student who has an idea for a game but has yet to begin.
Expa’s mission is to bring together all the main actors and stakeholders in the game industry and help create excitement, build cooperation, and raise the profile of the game development sector in Jyväskylä and Central Finland.

What we are aiming for

Stronger bonds through social connection

Creativity needs a place to breathe and allow new ideas to come when the foot is taken off the gas pedal so we gather together and just… enjoy.

 

For members and office tenants, the Digi & Game Center is open 24/7 for your social gatherings and events.

 

We host many social events monthly to maintain this creative community, welcome new members, and create new cooperations!
